You would be best advised to have a Home Buyer's Report. Given the premises is more than ten years old the property will not come with a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of defects a Home Buyer's report may be sufficient. The report should highlight any obvious issues and recommend further investigation if appropriate. If there are any signs of problems seek a comprehensive structural survey.
